Preliminary Operation

NOTE

This section provides information for the Agilent 70907A (or B), however the

 

operation of the Agilent 70909A and Agilent 70910A is similar. Minor

 

differences may be noted, but the necessary deviations from these exact

 

instructions will be obvious.

 

 

Equipment Connection

Connect the equipment as shown in Figure 2-16Use the following checklist to verify the connections:

Agilent 11970 LO IN to Agilent 70907B LO OUTPUT (SMA cable, 5061-5458)

Agilent 11970 IF OUT to Agilent 70907B IF INPUT (SMA cable, 5061-5458)
